Ancienne Douane, Haguenau

The Ancienne Douane, or Old Custom House, is a stunning Renaissance and Renaissance Revival building located in Haguenau, France. Constructed between 1515 and 1518, it has a rich history, having been damaged during military conflicts, including the campaign of Louis XIV in 1677 and again in World War II. The building was restored and transformed into a festive hall in the 1890s, and its exterior features beautiful sculptures and Neo-Renaissance portals. Today, visitors can enjoy a restaurant on the ground floor, making it a perfect stop for tourists and researchers interested in architectural history.
